Excerpt from Characteristics and Hybridization of Important Intermountain Shrubs: III. Sunflower Family Shrubs of the sunflower family are among the most common and important plants of the Intermountain area. In many valley, foothill, and mountain locations, composite shrubs, especially the sagebrushes and rabbitbrushes, provide the principal vegetation. These shrubs are invaluable as ground cover on natural and disturbed landscapes, as forage for wild and domestic herbivores, and as habitat for smaller creatures. The authors discuss and review vegetative, floral, and reproductive characteristics, hybridization, distribution and habitat, use, and division into subspecies entries for important Intermountain species. The following genera are covered: Artemisia, Chrysothamnus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Characteristics and Hybridization of Important Intermountain Shrubs, Vol. 2: Chenopod Family Shrubby chenopods from different localities and sometimes from the same site vary considerably in palatability, growth rate, forage production, and other characteristics that make them important sources of browse and cover. Some should have an important place in stabilization of disturbed areas on alkaline ranges. Natural hybridization has been observed between species of the same genus and even between different genera.
